Abby's Road

I have a friend named Abby, whom I met years back while in college at MTSU. We weren’t necessarily BFF’s, but she was always around and in touch. Since college, I’ve gotten to know her better through adult activities, such as a wedding we were both a part of a year ago. The older we get, the more I like her. The woman is brilliant. She’s a great friend, a devoted wife, and a phenomenal mother. We have similar personalities, which could be disastrous, but we’re mature enough to realize how awesome we are, so, it works. She, too, writes a blog, which I follow. (http://www.pureramblingsfrompegram.blogspot.com/ )She writes about life, motherhood, marriage and thoughts as a young woman. She started her blogging journey by answering a list of 30 things about yourself.

While I intended to write a weight-loss themed blog, sometimes the blogs are hard to come up with AND keep with the theme. Then I got to thinking. The whole idea behind transforming my body, is to have the perfect fit with this ideal life I’m living. I’ve said it before, I’m perfectly content with my life. Sometimes I sit and think about how I couldn’t have prayed to be in a better place. I know there is always growing and learning to do, but I’m thankful that I don’t have…. “baggage.” I don’t live with a dark cloud over my head. I don’t have any damaging secrets in my past. I’m the princess in a storybook love story. All of these amazing things, BUT, I’m just a little chubby.

So, I may be stealing a few ideas from my friend, Abby - starting with this list of 30 things. I’ll blog regularly, answering each of these questions along the way. Because a healthy body starts with a happy heart, and I’m reminded of where I come from and how I got here. And maybe you can know, too…
